"Hay, Brigade Commander! We now have less than 3,000 left! The devil staff officer smiled bitterly.

Violent explosions continued to explode in Sanshan Town, and the ghost soldiers of the 7th Independent Mixed Brigade were scurrying around like headless flies one by one. But under the ambush guns of the new regiment, they were beaten with heavy casualties, and the streets were littered with corpses of devils.

Looking around, the tragic scene is in sight, and Taro Ikemoto is distressed and wants to drip blood!

The 7th Independent Mixed Brigade is an elite unit that he has commanded for many years, and it has always been under the direct control of the Devil's North China Front Command, and the supply of weapons and ammunition has always been superior to other Japanese troops.

In particular, in terms of replenishment, well-trained recruits and many veterans were added to his independent 7th Mixed Brigade.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the 7th Independent Mixed Brigade is a powerful elite unit in the hands of Taro Ikemoto.

Unexpectedly, the scene in front of him stunned Taro Ikemoto!

"Brigade commander, brigade commander, what's wrong with you? Wake up! The chief of staff who was familiar with Ikemoto Taro, Kyofuku Furuto, saw that Ikemoto Taro looked a little confused, and immediately slapped Ikemoto Taro, shook it, and the old devil shouted urgently.

Ikemoto Taro was shaken by Kyofuku Furuto like this, and immediately came back to his senses, "It's okay! Chief of staff! Chief of Staff, what now? We only have less than 3,000 Imperial soldiers left, and the forced breakthrough has failed! ”

As soon as Kyofuku Furuto heard Taro Ikemoto's words of defeat, he immediately said, "Brigade commander, you have to cheer up!" You are the backbone of my 7th Independent Mixed Brigade, if you fall, what will happen to the remaining Imperial soldiers? Now that it is impossible to break through, Li Yunlong blocked all his key guns and artillery firepower in the direction of the entrance and exit of Sanshan Town. Once we concentrate our forces to break through, their firepower will soon be able to stop us! ”。

After a pause, Kyofu Furuto continued: "In addition, the terrain at the entrance and exit of Sanshan Town is narrow, easy to enter and difficult to exit, as long as the strength of a company can block the entrance and exit of Sanshan Town. What's more, judging from the situation of the two infantry wings we sent out to break through, the other party has already blown up the entrance and exit of Sanshan Town, and I am afraid there is no way to stand out! ”。

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

At this time, several shells that were obviously Japanese-made Type 92 infantry guns whistled from both sides of Miyama Town, and after the explosion on the ground, the buildings near the ghost officers such as Ikemoto Taro were shattered, which made Ikemoto Taro and Kyofuku Furuto, who was talking, frightened, and hurriedly found a place to hide.

Then, after stabilizing himself, Ikemoto Taro condensed and said to Kyofuku Furuto: "Then Chief of Staff, do you mean to stick to it and wait for help?" ”。

"Hay, brigade commander, that's all! At present, if you continue to forcibly break through, you can only be blocked by the opponent's ambush fire at the entrance and exit of Sanshan Town. The terrain there is narrow, even if we concentrate our strong forces to break through, the narrow terrain makes it easy for the opponent's ambush fire and machine gun fire to block our breakthrough route! If we continue to forcibly break through, we can only hit the opponent's live target! And our firepower counterattack is also very under the disadvantaged terrain, and it does not seem to have much counterattack power! Only by sticking to the reinforcements and waiting for the main force of General Matsui to arrive can there be a chance to turn defeat into victory. ”

Hearing this, Taro Ikemoto fell silent at the sound of gunfire.

Sticking to the help, you can only be beaten passively. Judging from the current situation, Li Yunlong's ambush artillery fire continues to be very strong, at least the artillery fire of his ambush is comparable to the firepower of a Japanese infantry brigade.

Moreover, the other party occupies the mountains on both sides of Sanshan Town, and the condescending firepower points are innumerable. The condescending firepower on both sides was enough to condescendingly suppress the Japanese troops in the town.

Even though Taro Ikemoto had strictly ordered the Japanese troops to find favorable terrain and buildings in Sanshan Town to counterattack, they were soon suppressed by the opponent's firepower and fought very aggrieved.

However, just as Kyofuku Furuto said helplessly, forcibly breaking through from the entrances and exits on both sides of Sanshan Town, once the opponent's firepower hits, it is enough to kill and injure a large number of Japanese soldiers.

You must know that under the conditions of narrow terrain, most of the Japanese troops forcibly broke through, and one of the opponent's shells exploded, at least dozens or hundreds of Japanese soldiers were easily killed.

Thinking of the breakthrough of the two infantry wings assembled before, there were more than 2,000 casualties, which made Ikemoto Taro already feel emotional.

At this time, I'm afraid there is really only one way to wait for help.

"Order all troops, turn to the defense, occupy fortified buildings and favorable terrain, and stand for reinforcements! In addition, Chief of Staff, immediately send a report to Admiral Matsui and inform us of the situation! Li Yunlong's troops may all be dispatched to ambush our department, and I ask Your Excellency the General to speed up and rush to Sanshan Town to rescue our department! Hurry up and drop! ”

There was no way, Ikemoto Taro could only make a quick decision.

Guto Jingfu smiled bitterly and said, "Haiyi, brigade commander!" Obedience! Subsequently, Kyofuku Furuto hurriedly asked the Japanese army signal soldiers who were leaving to send a telegram to Matsui Ishine for help.

At this time, Li Yunlong, who was directing the ambush battle, also condescendingly observed that the Japanese army was no longer forcibly breaking through.

"Taro Ikemoto seems to be scared of the blocked firepower, and he won't break through anymore!"

Li Yunlong muttered to himself, and at this time, Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion who had rushed back from the front line of command, heard Li Yunlong's muttering and said with a smile: "Regiment commander, according to our preliminary observation and statistics, the ambush battle lasted about twenty minutes, and we have annihilated at least 5,000 Japanese troops. It is estimated that at this time, the remnants of the devils in Sanshan Town should be less than three thousand! ”。

"Well, the big guy played well. But speed up your attack and try to eat the remnants of Taro Ikemoto! ”

Li Yunlong smiled and said, it seems that there is a good chance to eat the remnants of Ikemoto Taro before the main army of Matsui Shigen in the direction of Laiyuan arrives!

It's just that at this time, a radio signal soldier with the army rushed to Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao to salute and reported: "Report to the regiment commander, our army's reconnaissance detachment alerting in the direction of Laiyuan has sent an urgent telegram, and the 3rd Division of Matsui Shigen's main force in Laiyuan has all been dispatched and is rushing towards Sanshan Town. The guerrillas deployed along the route had already engaged in sporadic attacks and exchanges of fire with Matsui's main army on roads and mountain roads. The guerrillas reported that Matsui Ishine led the main force of the 3rd Division to advance bravely and remove the mines we had deployed at all costs, apparently to reinforce the besieged Ikamoto Taro's devils! ”。

"Matsui Ishone came so quickly. Looking at this situation, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat the remnants of the devil independent 7th mixed brigade in Sanshan Town! ”

Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, said loudly: "Regiment commander, looking at this situation, if you want to completely annihilate the remnants of Ikemoto Taro, I am afraid that all units will have to arrive in Sanshan Town for a close-range fight!" But Matsui Ishine will arrive in at least twenty minutes or so. What to do? ”。

"When you see that it is good, you will accept it, and order all troops to bombard the artillery for two minutes after five minutes, and then all units will withdraw and go north!" Li Yunlong sneered and waved his hand and said, Matsui Shigen's intention is obvious, this is to surround him! However, Matsui Ishone's abacus is impossible to realize, and labor and management are gone!
